Tick Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 (edited) A Life Of Promise A baby boy enters the world A mom and daddy's pride and joy They raise him up to knows whats right To try and keep him in the light The dark and heavy weighed him down He can not seem to lose his frown The pain became too much to bear Now the darkness is his lair Brooding, hiding in the shadows Wanting solace, finding none He takes the short cut to the end And now his pain is finally done Edited April 12, 2011 by tick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchetaxe&saw Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Oberon - Spike Milligan The flowers in my garden grow down Their colour is pain Their fragrance sorrow. Into my eyes grow their roots feeling for tears To nourish the black hopeless rose within me. Nervous breakdown Bournemouth February 1967 Manic Depression - Spike Milligan The pain is too much A thousand grim winters grow in my head In my ears the sound of the coming dead. All seasons All sane All living All pain. No opiate to lock still my senses Only left, the body locked tenses.

Invisible To Telescopic Eye Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 One of my faves. The Death of the Ball Turret Gunner by Randall Jarrell From my mother's sleep I fell into the State, And I hunched in its belly till my wet fur froze. Six miles from earth, loosed from the dream of life, I woke to black flak and the nightmare fighters. When I died they washed me out of the turret with a hose.

CMWriter Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 (edited) The ice It cracks like a whip under his feet The ice A chasm splits it down the middle The ice Makes a sickening creak like death The ice Snaps and he tumbles underneath The ice Breaks and there's nothing I can do The ice Keeps him under and I try to grab him but The ice Blocks my way; blocks my hand and The ice Is ultimately the barrier Between life and death. Dunno where this came from. Probably has something to do with Christopher Walken swinging a cane madly into a vase and yelling something about ice...
